Jose Mourinho is one of those managers who celebrates goals as passionately as his players do. His celebrations have caused a lot of problems, and he somehow manages to get out of that mess.

Once in 2011, when was he was the head coach of Real Madrid his team comfortably beat Villarreal 4-2 at home. Real Madrid were leading the game 3-2, and when Kaka added the fourth goal, he celebrated by holding his fist up high in front of the Villarreal bench. This caused a lot of controversy, but after the match he told the press that he wanted to celebrate the goal with his son who always sits behind the away dugout.

In 2013, when he was in his second spell at Chelsea, he celebrated in a classic Jose Mourinho manner at the Stamford Bridge. After Fernando Torres scored the winner late into the game, he celebrated by jumping in front of the away bench, and celebrated by pointing at something. He later said that he wanted to celebrate with his son, and how his son is always seated behind the away dugout and not the home dugout.
